Frankie & Benny's New York Italian Restaurant & Bar - Edinburgh Description
Frankie and Benny's combine the best of classic American and Italian in both style and cuisine. They specialise in home style cooking 'just like Mamma used to make it'. This is a great place to take the entire family and represents excellent value for money. The restaurant and bar is suitable for any occasion, whether it's a leisurely lunch, a family meal or a fantastic evening with friends - they make sure you have a great time.
Walking into the restaurant is like stepping back into 1950s New York, from the clatter and chatter of the open kitchen to the bottle lined bar. Walls with black and white family photographs showing life in Brooklyn's "Little Italy" surround cosy booth seating and tables. Combined with the classic music of the fifties, a mix of American swing and beat, they definitely provide a fun and friendly atmosphere for all to enjoy.
Frankie and Benny's offers a range of succulent starters, mouth watering meals and delicious desserts. Favourites include chargrilled burgers, pizzas, pastas and house specialities such as chicken parmigiana, risotto and T-bone steak. The bar serves a wide range of beers, wines, spirits, cocktails and soft drinks.
Their sharing platters with options of chicken, skins, ribs and wings and a combination are a great way to start your meal if you are dining in a group. The pastas, calzone and pizzas are attractive and all made freshly on order. An interesting dish on the menu is a breakfast pizza with generous amounts of pork and herb sausage, ham, sautéed mushrooms and a whole egg cracked into the centre before baking. They also serve a variety of sandwiches and burgers throughout the day.
For children up to the age of ten, an all-inclusive menu featuring Frankie and Benny's very own Gangster Mice is available! For just £3.95, your child can choose from a great selection of main courses, desserts and soft drinks. As an added treat, they'll also receive a kid's pack full of activities and stackable crayons to entertain them whilst you eat.
Enjoy an American Italian meal at Frankie and Benny's with freshly prepared food and warm hospitality that makes you feel right at home.

Your Reviews of Frankie & Benny's New York Italian Restaurant & Bar - Edinburgh
Frankie and Benny's (2 June 2008)
We went to Frankie and Benny's in Edinburgh for lunch yesterday and found our waiter extremely rude so ended up walking out. Once seated, we had ordered drinks and when the waiter returned with them I asked him if they no longer served a meal that I had ordered in the past, admittedly some time ago. He informed me that he had worked there for eleven years and that item had never been on the menu. Just by way of chat, and in no way complaining, I went on to tell him what the dish was served with in the hope he would come back with a polite reply. He replied in a rude manner and walked away leaving my husband and I shocked and embarrassed. We decided just to leave our drinks, unpaid for, and on our way out asked to speak to the manager. He just apologised and did not ask any questions. I was disappointed with the service, so much so I felt the need to write this review.

If you like cheese, you'll like this place. Cheese melted, sliced, poured or grated on EVERYTHING and in SERIOUS quantities. Cheesy fake Americana on the walls and cheesy names for every menu item.
It's a standard branded American style eatery with wipe down seats, predictable menu and prices to match. Lacked the American portion sizes, which wasn't really a bad thing as the amount of calories consumed was surely enough to feed more than 2 people for several days. Great for a fun family meal as service was quick and friendly.
